#conditions(location) ⇒ Hash<Symbol, Object>

Gets weather conditions for the location.

Parameters:

  • location (String) —

    The place to get the weather report for.

Returns:

  • (Hash<Symbol, Object>) —

    A hash containing strings of relevant weather information. It contains the following keys:

    • ‘:full_name` (`String`) — The full name of the location

    • ‘:city_name` (`String`) — The name of the city

    • ‘:state_abbreviation` (`String`) — The abbreviation for the state (or national equivalent)

    • ‘:state_name` (`String`) — The name of the state (or national equivalent)

    • ‘:country` (`String`) — The name of the country

    • ‘:zip_code` (`Integer`) — The zip code for this location

    • ‘:updated` (`String`) — A string describing the date for when this data was last updated.

    • ‘:weather` (`String`) — A brief description of the current weather conditions in this location (e.g., Partly

    Cloudy)

    • ‘:formatted_temperature` (`String`) — The formatted temperature as provided by the API. It does not contain °

    symbols. Its format is “XX F (YY C)”

    • ‘:temperature_f` (`Float`) — The current temperature in fahrenheit

    • ‘:temperature_c` (`Float`) — The current temperature in celsius

    • ‘:humidity` (`Integer`) — The humidity percentage

    • ‘:formatted_wind` (`String`) — A brief description of the current wind conditions (e.g., Calm)

    • ‘:wind_direction` (`String`) — The direction (East, West, etc.) that the wind is blowing

    • ‘:wind_degrees` (`Integer`) — The angle of the wind

    • ‘:wind_speed` (`Float`) — The speed of the wind in miles per hour

    • ‘:wind_gust_speed` (`Integer`) — The speed of the gusts of wind in miles per hour

    • ‘:formatted_feelslike` (`String`) — The formatted string for the “feels like” temperature data as provided

    by the API. See :formatted_temperature for the format.

    • ‘:feelslike_f` (`Integer`) — The temperature that it feels like (not always the same as the temperature it

    is) in fahrenheit

    • ‘:feelslike_c` (`Integer`) — Like feelslike_f but in celsius
